My sealed bid on a semi in Tooting has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The sellers have placed an offer on a flat, but it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other apartments booked. I have instructed a local conveyancing solicitor in Tooting. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with Principality going?
It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Tooting conveyancing search charges, etc). The first course of action is to check that your lawyer is on the Principality conveyancing panel. Concerning the subsequent steps this very much dictated by the circumstances of your case, attraction to this property and on the state of the market. In a rising market some purchasers will apply for a home loan with Principality and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their property lawyer to proceed with the conveyancing in Tooting.
